Display Monitoring

An application that detects and notifies you about changes on your Windows display.

What is it for?

Notifications are essential for staying informed, and many applications provide them for events like new emails or calendar reminders. However, sometimes you need notifications for events that are not supported, or the existing notifications are not quite right. For example, console applications often lack notifications entirely. You might also need a notification for a specific event, like a user's status change or a completed download. Furthermore, some applications offer inconvenient notifications, such as on-screen alerts but no mobile notifications. Display Monitoring is an application designed to solve these problems by giving you control over your notifications - if you can see it on the screen, you can get a notification for it.

How does it work?

To be notified about an event, it must be visible on your screen. You might need to make it visible, which can be straightforward (like a user's status) or require some creativity (like tailing log files). Once the event is visible, you define a "zone" on your screen for Display Monitoring to watch. The application then periodically scans this zone for changes. When a change is detected, you receive a notification.
